I would check with a dealer to find some leads there.. I would also goto my local powder coater and see if they can match it. I am a big fan of powder coating recently, especially rims. [img]http://www.refinishnetwork.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/dad.jpg[/img]

Our shop never really slowed down much if at all in the last two years. I’ve heard horror stories though of shops sending their guys home at noon for a month straight and so on. So the only conclusion I can draw is it’s the lower quality shops that are being weeded out. I was really surprised that we have still had a pretty high demand for custom and resto work, when the economy sunk in 08 I thought I’d be doing a lot more collision work. Luckily, that hasn’t really been the case.
I’m pretty sure I’ve used the same primer, it was a Upol direct to metal it came in a green can not sure the number. I sprayed it with a 1.8 tip and it sprayed fair. My beef with this primer wasn’t in it’s spray but it did not live up to any of the promises that the supplier gave regarding workability. But thats more the salesman putting it on a pedestal to make a quick sale which he’s done several times since. Now he hates me because I don’t trust him as far as I can throw him
